uricles are part of the atria and serve to increase the volume of the atria. The atria that they are a part of serve to direct blood into the ventricles and are not very muscular.

The ventricles are far more muscular than the atria and serve to pump blood to either the lungs or the rest of the body ( the right and left ventricles respectively).

Where does blood travel after the right auricle?

It travels to the right ventricle passing through the tricuspid valve. Then it travels to the lungs via pulmonary arteries. The oxygenated blood from the lungs returns to the heart (into the left auricle). From the left auricle the blood travels to the left ventricle. The left ventricle pumps it to aorta. The blood travels through the arteries and veins, then it returns to the right auricle of heart.
